Mate go check out Facebook. There’s way too many creeps that think this is fine.
Two Bulldogs players stood down over code of conduct breach
At least there’s some sense over here. Facebook comments are a mess. People don’t realise that stuff like this has the power to essentially end our sport. School clinics are a massive recruitment tool.

The referees not calling the 2 forward passes that led to nsw last try was a pretty key moment.
The key moments that cost Queensland Game 3
Just missed one stat.
Number of forward passes thrown in lead up to series winning try. 2
The Maroons had the passion but not the cattle
The NRL are treading a very dangerous path if this is deemed a shoulder charge. He has to get off. The rule only calls for use or attempted use of the arm or hands. There are still sits showing his hands out in front, having at Feki. If this tackle was front on we wouldn’t be having a conversation.
Forget who he is and what game it is. It just wasn’t a shoulder charge.
Slater is guilty but shouldn’t miss the grand final
Obviously Hall of Fame. Immortals is a joke of a concept now. I think Immortals should not have been considered until they had retired for 20+ years.But it is ruined now, so just bin it.
Also I’m not sure if this is allowed but I’ve got 4 spots left in a SC Draft tonight @ 8pm Sydney time. Drafty in here (401440). Pretty competitive hopefully.
Which should be rugby league's highest honour - Immortal or Hall of Fame?
I hope Hayne gets Parramatta back to the cellar dwelling champions they were before he left.
Hayne most dedicated I've seen him: Mannah
What’s up snitches. I is back. Broncos to win it all this year.
this list is good. Ish. Broncos and Storm can be added to the top tier. Sharks out of the 8. Rabbits tops 4. Raiders Suck.
What is a pass mark for your NRL club in 2018?
Just heard 6 to 8 weeks eJ. That’s probably not too bad. Couple of byes and Origin then back for the run home.

Thanks mate.
I really think it is fine the way it is. It was really very unlucky. I don’t think there was any malice in it from Mead. He just lands awkwardly. Hopefully you get some good news today, I have been living watching him play.
This weekend had really stuffed my supercoach team.

Surely a computer program can do it. Look at cricket.

I would love to see the physics that propels a ball 8m forward when thrown backwards. He’s chosen the wrong career then, should be racing v8s, on foot.
Surely we’ve got some physicists here to punch the numbers.

Sticky is just doing what Sticky does.
Goes good one year, then destroys your club.

DCE changed his line to make Thaiday hit the outside shoulder. It was a great ‘tactic’ by DCE but bit something I want to see. It’s hardly a new phenomena as PNG Bronco fan 88 alludes, but I would love to see milking penalised to get rid of it. We used to laugh at soccer, but we are worse now I believe.

Saints are doing better than anticipated. I still don’t think they make the 8.

Of course they should. We call that Rugby League.

EJ, you can’t change it. I was it the game and it wasn’t pretty and we all hope Tom is ok.
But he didn’t need to jump. He chose to jump. Why is the onus entirely on the other player.
I can see why the cry for a role change has gone up, but it will not work, and is a slippery slope.
What if someone jumps to take a grubber, what about a pass?
What about of you just bunny hop down the field?
The high ball contest is already a joke with penalties blown against the attacking team seemingly at random.
Common sense doesn’t exist within the NRL referee ranks. You’re asking for more grey area to be introduced mid season, the exact thing we usually rage against.
Tom was unlucky, but he put himself in that position, maybe because he didn’t know the rule.

Gee that’s a good completion rate from the Broncos in those conditions.

Gee that couldn’t be too hard though Emcie.

The penalty count tells you everything you need to know about the game and the state of play in the NRL at the moment. It’s hard to bother making excuses when you’re so far in front.
The place is falling apart. NSW needed a good story as they are about to be rocked. Origin will be better for seeing the back of Gallen.
Get some class into the side. NSW used to have players you hated but at least respected. There’s about 3 in the team deserving of any respect. Fix your house NSW so we can start playing origin again.
Blues' dead rubber win is a cause for celebration for Queenslanders in the know
